Expand Don’t think the White Sox would trade Vera for Perez. Only the Perez position player equivalent, which is probably closer to the intermediate value between Happ and Josh Bell.

South Side Hit Men Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 White Sox not listed among the teams interested in Joey Gallo. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/07/brewers-padres-rays-interested-in-joey-gallo.html Apparently, DHs, 1B and LFers are the only players Hahn is interested in playing RF for the White Sox since 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalChiSox Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Weren't there rumors earlier of a Sox Marlins Chisholm trade because the marlins didnt like his attitude or off field stuff? Based on the value chart, it would be almost identical if we got him for Vaughn, Ramos and Burger. I know he's out another 5 weeks but he could be ready for September and it's more of a long term thing. I dont want to trade Vaughn but Harold and others keep bringing him up in trade possibilities in the last year or so and a LH 2B with power and defense under long term cost control is harder to find than a very good RH 1B.

Expand It's probably a good idea to try and trade either Eloy or Vaughn for Jazz this off-season.

Expand I think if you added him at 2B and with Colas likely to come up early next year in RF, you've added alot of LH savagery to the lineup. And with Montgomery progressing, you give Moncada reason to up his game at 3B because there would be someone pushing him relatively soon (2024).

Expand The White Sox will do TA the courtesy of giving Montgomery time at other positions in 2nd half 2023 unless 1) they’re not planning on keeping TA after 2023, or 2) they want Montgomery to quietly succeed Anderson in 2024 but not ready to trade Anderson quite yet, or 3) they feel Montgomery will outgrow SS eventually. Moncada is not one to feel any pressure until his option years and not guaranteed ones come into question. Even then, maybe he’ll be ready for a trade instead, fresh start like Kelenic probably needs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 This feels like that dead zone period for Sox prospects when we were pretty consistently a bottom 5-10 system under Williams (due to so many trades to fill mlb roster holes) and the #6-10 guys in the system got lot more hype and attention than was actually warranted. I remember a Latin American catcher being on the BA Top Ten for 2-3 years even, never made it to the big leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I think Kelenic can still be great. I think the Mariners think so too, but I would definitely buy low on him if Seattle doesn't think highly of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
